Comment:

 @Collizo4sky, So you want to deregister control type not control.

 I have tested your patch and found that it is not remove control type when
 i call below function in theme functions.php file.

 {{{ $wp_customize->deregister_control_type( 'WP_Customize_Color_Control'
 ); }}}

 i have checked your code and found that it's return notice when we try to
 deregister any controls. You can please try rewise patch that i have do
 and added two new functions to deregister panel and section also.

 After applying patch you can check like below functions.

 To deregister any control type add below function in {{{
 customize_register }}} action like below

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function customize_deregister_control_type( $wp_customize ) {
         $wp_customize->deregister_control_type(
 'WP_Customize_Color_Control' );
 }
 add_action( 'customize_register', 'customize_deregister_control_type' );
 }}}

 To deregister any panel type add below function in {{{ customize_register
 }}} action like below

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function customize_deregister_panel_type( $wp_customize ) {
         $wp_customize->deregister_panel_type( 'WP_Customize_Themes_Panel'
 );
 }
 add_action( 'customize_register', 'customize_deregister_panel_type' );
 }}}


 To deregister any section type add below function in {{{
 customize_register }}} action like below

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function customize_deregister_section_type( $wp_customize ) {
         $wp_customize->deregister_section_type( 'WP_Customize_Section' );
 }
 add_action( 'customize_register', 'customize_deregister_section_type' );
 }}}
